$TERM variable problem

Reported by: legendario Owned by: somebody
Priority: major Milestone:
Component: guake Version: 0.4.2
Keywords: variable Cc:

Description

I don't know why but guake is not inheriting the $TERM variable from the system. This is causing a lot of problems. For example, I can't read any man page because when I try, I receive the following error:

TERM environment variable needs set. man: o comando encerrou com estado 1: pager -s

echo $TERM returns the value dumb

The way it is now, it also doesn't seem to respect options inside ~/.bashrc cause I have set a color bash prompt what is not working in guake.

Setting the term variable manually to xterm or linux fixes the problems but I have to do that to every tab opened later. I need a way to make this change permanent.

I'm using guake 0.4.2-2ubuntu1 version under Ubuntu maverick meerkat.
